Abstract:
Energy is the economy back bone. Nowadays the demand for cheap and clean
energy has become the major and most priority of every country looking to
develop while maintaining its environment. Energy demand is increasing
continuously due to rapid growth in population and industrialization development.
The major energy demand is provided from fossil fuel sources. There are
increasing environmental problems associated with the current use of fossil fuels.
The potential for biomass to supply much larger amounts of useful energy with
reduced environmental impacts compared to fossil fuels is the aim of this study. In
this experimental study the slow pyrolysis of sugar cane bagasse process was
discussed, two samples have been provided, first sample from Kenana bagasse, and
the second sample from White Nile bagasse.One of the products from the slow
pyrolysis process was bio-oil, it has been found from the laboratory analysis of the
bio-oil that the calorific value is quite high with compare to the previous covered
studies, which prove that bio-oil would be an environmentally friendly alternative
that can be used for transportation and different industrial sectors.
